  • TXHT Jersey Share – A Jersey from Childhood

    TXHT Jersey Share – A Jersey from Childhood

    Today in the TXHT Jersey Share series we take a look back at a jersey that I have owned since it was first purchased for me by my father, and that is this Mighty Ducks of Anaheim jersey.

     

    Mighty Ducks Home White 1996 Youth

     

    Fun fact is that my father bought me both the home and away jerseys for the Mighty Ducks, but the major difference between them was the fact that the away jersey (they wore their dark uniforms on the road in the 1990’s) was more authentic as the Ducks emblem was sewn on patch rather than the screen print you see for this one. Still really cool, even more cool that I still have it after all of these years.

     

    Scary fact… I can still fit into this jersey…

  • TXHT Jersey Share – The American Highlight Reel

    TXHT Jersey Share – The American Highlight Reel

    In today’s edition of the TXHT Jersey Share series we take a look at a jersey for a player who became an American highlight reel after his performance at the 2010 Sochi Olympic Games, TJ Oshie.

    USA WCH 2016 Front

     

    This is another jersey from the 2016 World Cup of Hockey. I actually got this jersey from Modell’s heavily discounted because Team USA was eliminated from the tournament so quickly, and it was of Oshie who is a player that I like. It’s also a lot better looking than the away jersey that they had.

     

    USA WCH 2016 Back

     

    Just like with the Team Canada jersey it gave us our first look at the Adidas style for their line of hockey jerseys. Obviously the “Three Lines” are on the sides on the outer ribs, and is thankfully only seen on the NHL practice jerseys. Overall it’s a good jersey.

    TXHT Jersey Share – Heading to the Minors

    We’re heading to the minors today in TXHT Jersey Share as we take a look at this beautiful Manchester Monarchs jersey.

    So full disclosure the number one reason I got this jersey because it was purple, and that is my favorite color. Also this a jersey I purchased from my friends Mark and John when they were doing their moving sale before they moved from Virgina to Florida.

     

    In regards to the jersey itself, I really like the overall design of the jersey as it does a few things differently comparedmost jerseys. The crowns on the sleeves to the word “MANCHESTER” on the bottom to mimicks when the Los Angeles King used to have “LOS ANGELES” on the bottom of their jerseys before moving to what they have now. Overall a really cool jersey.

  • TXHT Jersey Share – Holy Retro Jersey Batman!

    TXHT Jersey Share – Holy Retro Jersey Batman!

    Holy Geek Jersey Batman! The TXHT Jersey Share series today takes a look at Geeky Jerseys Crusader jersey based off the 1960’s Batman TV series starring the late Adam West.

     

    Crusader Geeky Front.jpg

     

    A more recent addition to my collection, this jersey had been on my radar for a while, and when it was re-released late last year for orders I hopped on the opportunity and ordered one for the collection. I mean how can you deny that amazing retro Batman logo? You can’t.

     

    Crusader Geeky Back

     

    For the back of the jersey I really like the curved text for the name, and the light from the top of the Batmobile at the center right below the collar is a really nice touch to the jersey. Overall a really great design and a nice tribute to the past to Adam West’s Batman.

  • TXHT Jersey Share – Old School Becomes New School

    TXHT Jersey Share – Old School Becomes New School

    What is old becomes new again in today’s edition of the TXHT Jersey Share series. The past two days we have looked at two jerseys from the Washington Capitals past, and today we are looking at the reintroduction of the Capitals retro white jersey through reebok as an alternate jersey.

     

    Capitals Alternate White 2012.jpg

     

    Originally brought back for the 2011 Winter Classic against the Pittsburgh Penguins, the Capitals decided to bring back the original red, white, and blue uniform as their alternate jersey for the 2011-12 campaign. Honestly seeing this jersey over the Capitals then current, still current(?), away jersey has always been more appealing to the eyes, and a full time switch to this look is still very desired. Especially since 1994 and all of the jersey design changes like Reebok Edge and now Adidas AdiZero, this is a design that has been able to work on both of those jersey changes as evident with the Reebok jersey pictured above.

    TXHT Jersey Share – A Time for Change

    Ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls welcome to another edition of the TXHT Jersey Share series. Today we have the Washington Capitals blue eagle jersey that they switched to for the 1995-96 season.

     

    Capitals Road Blue 1996.jpg

     

    As a kid this was the first Capitals jersey I owned, though not the one pictured as the one I had a child was donated after I grew out of it. I always loved this jersey because it was so different from how all of the other jerseys looked, though the Calgary Flames and St. Louis Blues both had really unique jerseys that I liked too. However, this is one of the hardest jerseys to find along with a quality New York Islanders Fisherman jersey, and I was able to find one but sadly the word “CAPITALS” is screen printed on instead of sewn on like how my childhood one was. Overall it’s an awesome jersey and one I cherish as it was a jersey I always loved seeing it in action.

  • TXHT Jersey Share – Going Old School

    TXHT Jersey Share – Going Old School

    Ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls welcome to another edition of TXHT Jersey Series. Today we go old school with this vintage 1994 Washington Capitals jersey.

     

    Capitals Home White 1994.jpg

     

    This one is a special one in my collection as I had never truly owned any of the old school red, white, and blue jerseys as a kid, though I did have a Kevin Hatcher shirsey during the Capitals 20th Anniversary Season, so when CCM started doing the NHL Vintage series I knew picking up a Capitals retro jersey was a must.
